Healthy Nails

Your nails are a key sign to others of your overall grooming habits and health. A manicure and / or pedicure is key to completing your renewing experience. There are a variety of nail services that will help you stay in style! Understand that you can receive one of the best manicures, but if you’re not maintaining a healthy life style, it will show.

Tips on how to maintain healthy nails:

• Nails that chip, split or peel can be a sign of iron, vitamin or calcium deficiency. A daily multi-vitamin should do the trick.
  
• Overexposure to household cleaners could cause damage to your nails. Try wearing gloves when using cleaning products.
  
• Your nails may develop white spots; this could be a sign of insufficient zinc, iron or calcium. Ensure to include this in your diet and they should disappear.
  
• Sometime your nails may have a yellowish tint to them; this could be caused by wearing nail polish continuously or using a subpar product. Try going polish-free a few days between manicures.

Remember grooming starts before the day of your appointment. Grooming starts in your everyday life. Grooming tips by Perfections, Inc.

Massage - Feel Good Luxury or Health Benefits???

Perfections, is not only concerned about your outer appearance, we also pay attention to your inner and overall well being. At Perfections, we offer quality massage services that help complete the unique experience that leaves you feeling better from the inside out.
Most think of massage as merely an impractical, feel-good luxury used primarily for stress relief and relaxation. However, massage can help maintain emotional, mental and physical well being and should be incorporated as a part of a wellness routine. Other benefits of massage include, but are not limited to:

• Improves blood circulation by assisting blood flow back to the heart. This increase in blood flow is similar to that which is associated with exercise.
  
• Decreases blood pressure by causing the blood vessels to dilate and thus both diastolic and systolic pressure readings decrease. This decrease in pressure can last up to 40 minutes after receiving a massage.
  
• Improves the condition of the skin via increased circulation. This increase in circulation allows added nutrients to the skin and results in improved skin condition, texture and tone. It also promotes hair growth by increasing blood flow to the scalp through scalp manipulation.
  
• Increases muscle tone by using vibration and tapotement techniques. These massage techniques increase muscle spindle activity, which increases minute muscle contractions. The increase in contractions help tone weak muscles.
  
• Promotes deeper and easier breathing, which is beneficial to those who suffer from asthma and bronchitis.

As one can see, the health benefits of a massage far exceed the obvious muscle pain, stress relief and overall relaxation. Our therapists at Perfections are aware of these benefits and are committed to putting this knowledge to work and providing you with quality service.

The Key to shaving

One of the key factors separating Perfections from other Salons and Barber shops is our attention to detail when servicing our clients. Our sheer focus to detail and determination to offer quality service to our customers have proven to be a winning combination. Let’s take the art of shaving. Shaving goes back centuries, but the formula remains the same.

• Setting the stage:
  Your start determines your finish. Starting out its key to ensure the face is properly moisturized. This can be achieved by applying a hot towel (steaming the face) and or shaving just after getting out of the shower. This aids in softening the hair follicles and giving you a clean shave.
  
• The Right touch:
  Next you will use a skin conditioning shaving lotion before you put the hot lather on, and steam the face with a hot towel.
  
• The Art
  It is recommended for you to shave with the grain, using long strokes or in the same direction hair grows to prevent irritation. For a closer shave it is required to pull the skin as you shave. In most cases an upward motion is required for the lower neck area.
  
• Final shaving step:
  After shaving is complete, use a skin rejuvenating astringent, this procedure should eliminate or reduce skin irritations and razor bumps.

Knowing your skin and how your hair grows is a key factor to understanding how often you need to shave. There are a number of barbers that offer the hot towel shave, but you haven’t received a hot towel shave until you have received it at Perfections Refining Image. We have barbers that are well experienced and ready to service you in the art of shaving. The atmosphere is the most important part of shaving, and Perfections definitely has a pleasant atmosphere. After you are reclined, a service of hot towel is heated to your desire. As you enjoy an embracing atmosphere, your face will thank you for visiting Perfections

Why the Hair Steamer

What’s all the hype about a hair steamer?

Perfections Refining Image Beauty and Barber Lounge is now introducing a new service for all hair types, the Hair Steamer.

The Hair Steamer has been in existence for a while, but just now really catching "steam" nationwide! LOL. The steamer is used by men and women for deep treatments, like scalp cleansing, protein moisturizing, and color treatments. It produces healthy hair. The steam circulation, fused with applied heat, helps to open the follicles and hair shaft. This process aids in ensuring the hair shaft is properly moisturized and any special treatments are sure to reach the base of the hair shaft.

The steamer comes with many benefits:
· Reduction in hair breakage
· Decrease in dandruff from dry scalp
· Less tangles and knots.
· Added moisture
· Beautiful shine
· Manageability of new growth
· Softer hair texture

Key points to remember about the steamer; it’s great for opening the pores to release oil and dirt, but ultimately you are cleansing your skin (scalp), hair and making it stronger and healthier. The Hair Steamer is safe and a great way to rebuild and refine the look you seek in your hair. Perfections recommends you stop by today to learn more about the benefits of a Hair Steaming Treatment.

Full steam ahead to healthy hair and a healthy you!!
